     for the year ended July 31, 1996.
     
2.   ORGANIZATION, LINE OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT BUSINESS RISKS

     a.   ORGANIZATION AND LINE OF BUSINESS
     
     American Technologies Group, Inc. (the Company or ATG) was formed on 
     September 27, 1988, and merged with an inactive publicly owned company 
     named One Stop Printing, Inc., a Minnesota corporation, formerly General 
     Cybernetics Corporation.  General Cybernetics Corporation was 
     incorporated in September 1968 and was merged with and changed its name to
     One Stop Printing, Inc. in December 1972.  In February 1991, First Western 
     Acquisitions, Inc. (FWA), a newly-formed Nevada Corporation, acquired 
     effective control of the Company in a reverse merger transaction with 
     the inception of the new entity beginning in February 1991 using the 
     name ATG.  Prior to February 1991, the Company was inactive.  ATG was in
     the development stage until July, 1994 at which time it acquired the 
     publishing business of Final Frontier Publishing, Inc., now named ATG 
     Media, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (ATG Media).
     
     In July 1994, ATG acquired an 85 percent interest in ATG Media in an 
     acquisition accounted for by the purchase method of accounting with the 
     results of operations of ATG Media consolidated with the results of the 
     Company from the date of acquisition (July 29, 1994). In August 1994, 
     ATG completed the acquisition of the remaining 15 percent interest of ATG
     Media at which time it became a wholly-owned subsidiary.
     
     In April 1995, ATG acquired 100 percent of the common stock of New 
     Concept Mining, Inc. (New Concept Mining) a Nevada corporation. The 
     acquisition of New Concept Mining was accounted for by the purchase 
     method of accounting with the results of operations of New Concept 
     Mining consolidated with the results of the Company from the date of 
     acquisition (April 21, 1995).
     
     ATG is a research and development company principally involved in 
     developing, through in-house investigation and science, proprietary 
     energy and environmental systems which offer innovative methods to 
     reduce, and in some cases eliminate, hazardous chemical by-products or 
     emissions resulting from industrial production and combustion processes.
     
     ATG Media develops and markets space and science related publications, 
     books and merchandise for professionals involved in, and enthusiasts of, 
     space exploration.  ATG Media's principal publication is Final Frontier 
     Magazine which was first published in 1986.

                                      Page 7

     New Concept Mining was formed for the purpose of acquiring mineral 
     properties with the long-term goal of developing and mining these 
     properties.  Some of the mineral properties acquired are currently 
     non-producing and have either never been mined or mining activities were
     ceased in excess of ten years ago.
     
     b.   SIGNIFICANT BUSINESS RISKS
     
     Since its inception, the Company has incurred significant operating 
     losses.  The ability of the Company to successfully carry out its 
     business plan is dependent upon (1) its ability to obtain sufficient 
     additional capital, (2) generate significant revenues through its 
     existing assets and operating businesses which it has acquired, and (3) 
     overcome significant product development issues.  

     The Company plans to raise additional working capital, if necessary, 
     through private offerings, as well as attain listing on a national 
     exchange.  The successful outcome of future activities cannot be 
     determined at this time and there are no assurances that if achieved, 
     the Company will have sufficient funds to further develop its mineral 
     properties and execute their business plans or generate positive 
     operating results.

3.   CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

     In November, 1996, the Company issued $1,400,000 of 7 percent 
     Convertible Debentures (7% Debentures), maturing November 1, 1999.  The 
     accrued interest is due upon the earlier of conversion or maturity.  Up 
     to 50 percent of the original principal amount of the 7% Debentures is 
     convertible into Common Stock commencing 45 days after issuance and up to
     100 percent of the original principal amount of the 7% Debentures is 
     convertible into Common Stock commencing 75 days after issuance, at the 
     sole option of the holder.  The conversion price is equal to the lower 
     of $2.775 or 70 percent of the average closing bid price of the Common 
     Stock for the five trading days prior to conversion.  $700,000 of the 7% 
     Debentures plus accrued interest were converted into 550,107 shares of
     Common Stock during the quarter ended January 31, 1997 and the remaining 
     $700,000 of the 7% Debentures plus accrued interest were converted into 
     496,860 shares of Common stock subsequent to the end of the quarter.

     In September, 1996, the Company issued $700,000 of 6 percent Convertible
     Debentures (8% Debentures), maturing September 30, 1998. In November,
     1996, $350,000 of the 8% Debentures were converted into 209,874 shares 
     of Common Stock and in January, 1997, $350,000 of the 8% Debentures were
     converted into 214,622 shares of Common Stock.

4.   CAPITAL STOCK

     a.   COMMON STOCK
     
     During the three months ended January 31, 1997, the Company issued 2,000 
     shares of Common Stock for services rendered valued at $3,460.  All 
     shares issued were valued at estimated market value at date of issuance.
     
     b.   PREFERRED STOCK
     
     ATG's authorized preferred stock is 50,000,000 shares, par value $0.001

     The Company has designated a series of preferred stock called Series A

     10,000,000 shares.  The Series A Stock receives a ten percent higher

     The Company has designated a second series of preferred stock called 
     Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (Series B Stock) and authorized 
     500,000 shares.  The Series B Stock has a liquidation preference of 
     $8.00 per share, is entitled to one vote per share and is convertible 
     upon holders request without the payment of any additional consideration
     during the first year following issuance into the number of shares of
     Common Stock equal to the quotient of $8.00 per share and the Market Value
     per Share for the ten trading days immediately preceding conversion and in
     subsequent years into one share of Common Stock for each share of Series 
     B Stock.  Of the 224,204 Series B Stock subscriptions originally issued 
     in connection with the ATG Media acquisition, an aggregate 190,454 
     subscriptions were converted into 507,276 shares of Common Stock in 
     fiscal years 1995 and 1996.  During the first fiscal quarter of 1997, 
     the remaining 33,750 shares of Series B Stock subscriptions were 
     canceled in exchange for 15,000 shares of Common Stock.
     
     The Company has designated a third series of preferred stock called 
     Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (Series C Stock) and authorized 
     2,000 shares.  The Series C Stock has a liquidation preference of $1,000
     per share, an 8 percent coupon payable at the time of conversion, is 
     non-voting and is convertible upon holders request without the payment of
     any additional consideration up to 50 percent on the forty-fifth day 
     following the original issuance and is fully convertible on the 
     seventy-fifth day following the original issuance into the number of 
     shares of Common Stock equal to $1,000 per share plus accrued dividends 
     divided by 70 percent of the Market Value per share for the five trading
     days immediately preceding conversion.  The Series C Stock automatically 
     convert on the second anniversary of the date of issuance.  During the 
     first fiscal quarter of 1997, all of the outstanding shares of Series C 
     Stock were converted into 1,490,702 shares of Common Stock.
     
     c.   STOCK OPTION PLANS
     
     During fiscal 1994, the Company adopted the 1993 Incentive Stock Option 
     Plan (Incentive Plan) and the 1993 Non-Statutory Stock Option Plan 
     (Non-Statutory Plan) to grant options to purchase up to a maximum of ten 
     percent of the total outstanding Common Stock of the Company.  Options 
     are issued at the discretion of the Board of Directors to employees only
     under the Incentive Plan and to non-employees under the Non-Statutory
     Plan. Under the Incentive Plan, the exercise price of an Incentive Stock 
     Option shall not be less than the fair market value of the Common Stock 
     on the date the option is granted.  However, the  exercise price of an 
     Incentive Stock Option granted to a ten percent stockholder (as defined 
     in the Incentive Stock Option Plan), shall be at least one hundred ten 
     percent of the fair market value of Common Stock on the date the option 
     is granted.  Exercise prices  of options granted under the Non-Statutory 
     Plan may be less than fair market value.  Each option expires at the 
     date fixed by the Board upon issuance but in no event more than ten
     years.  The plans expire December 2002.
     
     As of January 31, 1997, there were 1,912,500 outstanding options 
     exercisable at between $1.50 and $6.25 per share.  During the three 
     month period ended January 31, 1997, Incentive Stock Options covering 
     423,000 shares were granted at an exercise price of $1.70 per share and 
     70,000 shares were granted at an exercise price of $1.87 per share and
     Non-Statutory Stock Options covering 20,000 shares were granted at an
     exercise price of $1.70 per share.  No stock options granted under either
     Plan has been exercised since July 31, 1996.  As of January 31, 1996, 
     1,115,875 options granted under the Plans have vested.

     Common Stock owed for services rendered prior to January 31, 1997, valued
     at $30,000, (ii) 6,062, shares of  Common Stock owed for interest accrued

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. 

Total assets decreased by $1,366,600 from $9,981,800 to $8,615,200 at July 
31, 1996 and January 31, 1997, respectively.  This decrease was the net 
result of a decrease in current assets of $1,316,700, primarily consisting of 
a cash decrease of $1,529,500 partially offset by increases in account, 
subscription and note receivables ($124,400) and inventory ($90,400) and a 
decrease of Goodwill of $260,000 and an increase in Mining Property & 
Equipment of $245,300.

Total liabilities increased by $640,800 from $3,555,700 to $4,196,500 at July 
31, 1996 and January 31, 1997, respectively.  This increase was principally 
the result of the issuance of the convertible debentures partially offset by 
the reduction of notes payable and long term liabilities ($32,300), 
subscription production ($40,700) and related party payables ($30,000).

The Company's consolidated revenue decreased by $55,500 from $222,900 to 
$167,400 for the quarters ended January 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively.  
This decrease in revenue was primarily attributable to other revenue during 
the quarter ended January 31, 1996, partially offset by the increases in 
publishing of $39,900 due to only one issue of Final Frontier Magazine being 
published during the quarter ended January 31, 1996, and product sales 
($40,900). ATG's consolidated loss increased $1,632,500 from $1,051,500 to 
$2,684,000 for the quarters ended January 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively.  
This increased loss was principally the result of the increase in interest 
expense related to the convertible debentures and the debt reduction as well 
as the result of increases in all categories of expenses due to increased 
business operations made possible by the improved liquidity of the Company, 
except for a reduction in general and administrative as a result of the 
reversal of certain accruals.

The Company's cash flow used in operations increased from $1,523,200 to 
$3,340,400 for the six months ended January 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively.  
The primary source of working capital during the six months ended January 31, 
1997 was the sale of $2,100,000 of Debentures for net proceeds of $1,823,500 
and net proceeds from the sale of stock and stock subscriptions of $324,000.  
In the comparable period in 1996, the primary source of working capital was 
the sale of Common Stock for net proceeds of $3,735,300.  The Company 
anticipates that it will be able to continue its operations at the current 
level for the remainder of the fiscal year without the sale of additional 
securities or generating significant revenues from existing operations, 
however, there can be no assurance to this effect.

ITEM 2  CHANGES IN SECURITIES

(a)  Not applicable.

(b)  Not applicable.

(c)  During the three months ended January 31, 1997, two thousand (2,000) 
shares of Common Stock were issued to one individual in consideration of 
services rendered.  The issuance is claimed to be exempt from registration 
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), pursuant to Section 
4(2) thereof, as a transaction not involving a public offering, in that the 
purchaser had full access to all material information concerning the Company 
and was acquiring the shares for investment and not with a view to 
distribution.  There were no underwriting discounts or commissions paid in 
connection with the issuance of the Common Stock nor was any advertising or 
other form of general solicitation used by the Company.  

On March 14, 1997 the Company sold for cash to a foreign investor a 7.5% 
Convertible Debenture Due March 1, 2000 in the amount of Two Million Dollars 
($2,000,000) (the "7.5% Debenture").  The sale was exempt from registration 
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Regulation S 
adopted thereunder.

Up to one-third of the original principal amount of the 7.5% Debentures is 
convertible into Common Stock commencing 45 days after issuance, up to 
two-thirds of the original principal amount of the 7.5% Debentures are 
convertible into Common Stock commencing 75 days after issuance and up to 100 
percent of the original principal amount of the 7.5% Debentures is 
convertible into Common Stock commencing 105 days after issuance, at the sole 
option of the holder; however the right to convert the 7.5% Debenture expires 
on March 1, 2000.  The conversion price is equal the lower of $3.225 or 75 
percent of the average closing bid price of the Common Stock for the five 
trading days prior to conversion.

D.J. Ltd. and Corporate Capital Management, LLC. acted as placement agents 
and together received Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) and warrants to 
purchase 200,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of Four Dollars 
($4.00) per share.  The warrant has a five year term and certain "piggy-back" 
registration rights under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.



ITEM 6.  EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K.

(a)  EXHIBITS.

     None.

(b)  REPORTS ON FORM 8-K.

        The Company filed one Report on Form 8-K dated November 26, 1996 
     reporting under Item 9.
